Professional Supervision

for Teacher Leadership

 What do you mean by
Professional Supervision for
teacher leadership?
"Teacher leadership is not in
competition with the idea of
school leadership"
 De Grauwe and Carron's (1996) four
models in school supervision:
1. Classical Supervision Model
- retains the role to control and provide support in
pedagogical and administrative areas.
2. Central Control Model
- inspects each school from time to time and the
inspectors publishes a report.
3. Close-to-School Support Model
- considers that the core role of supervision service is to
assist and concentrate on the neediest schools.
4. School-Site Supervision Model
- relies on a combination of professional and public
accountability.

Model of Teacher Status
Does the teacher status affect the
teachers' leadership?
• According to the National Commission on Teaching
and America's Future, schools should be
reorganized in ways that support teachers' success.
• "The development of career paths that place
greater value on teachers' classroom work and
provide greater incentives for all teachers to
develop high levels of efficacy is also an area of
premise."
• According to the Teacher Councils in Australia and
New Zealand, councils play major roles in securing
the professional status of teaching and building
morale in the profession.
